New score super 8 class

[racer56]

Turnkey takes a brand new in the crate engine to Score for sealing. After Score seals it, Turnkey puts their seals on the engine. I don't get what is so hard to understand about how you have two entities sealing the same engine.

Ok I have read every post and I am still trying to comprehend how there can be two tags on the same motor unless both Turnkey and SCORE do their inspection simutaniously? Sending it one place and then sending it to another they would have to open and break it down for an inspection eliminating the previous tag right? Obviously no dog in the fight but always trying to improve my knowledge and learn more about this sport I cherish so much....

Thats funny you ask that, wheres racer 56.

I don't think a lot of people realize that Savage and Turnkey are only about 10 miles away from each other too.

not nessisarily......if so...how do i have an engine TAGGED by both......but SUPPOSABLY missing one tag??? hhhmmmmmm....minor fubar im sure.....colby apparently is the tech guy at bitd, and he knows where i got the engine.....

No way! GM can build a way better engine than some used crap. By the way PETE how much did you pay for that USED pump gas long block?

10k....then ran for 4 races and sold for 10k.....

Why are so many people so negative on a class they have no intention of participating in? To many racers spend to much time worrying about other people cheating and not enough time developing their own race program. The rumor mill is always concocting a new story about Joe blow cheating and 99% of the time its pure dog sheet. Cutting off a engine seal with a serial number and replacing it undetected is hard to do.

Why not have Turnkey replace the missing seal?

Because this is the Internet.

Would it be possible to have Pistol and Zaiden settle this with a nice round of paper, rock, scissors at V2R ? When will Hudsen Hall address the racing community on his thoughts of how the race organizations should handle this matter ?

I think it should be a spec fuel in all spec engine classes along with sealed engine even if fuel supplier provides special blend at the races for a good price.

i qualified FIRST TROPHYTRUCK a couple years ago at the parker 425......with a PUMP GAS ENGINE.......so i dont think mandatory pump gas rule would slow anyone down or save any money......

ProTruck was a spec fuel class and that didn't work, all you have to do is finish on spec fuel, every other lap or mile - do what you want, and that is what happened. Same with Class 9, too hard to police in the past and I don't think that has changed.

Cool class for sure, but it is going to be a cluster pluck for sure - all limited classes are. Especially when there are differences between promoters. Good luck!

P.s. "for a good price" - you cheap guys crack me up!
